gents are parallel and rate of change is same.
boat might be smooth and curved, but a boat still has a lot of edge detail that is not smooth
or curved.
Utilizing G

and G
1
continuity can allow for sharper and more precise geometric
shapes, but it is worth noting that this may require adding additional geometry around
key details to ensure an accurate representation. Figures 9.34 and 9.35 demonstrate this
particular case.
Figure

Without extra geometry.

With extra geometry.
